FEELER FT-250A HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The FEELER FT-250A is a horizontal machining center engineered for precision turning and milling operations on cylindrical workpieces. The machine accommodates workpieces with a maximum turning diameter of 16.500" and turning length of 41.300", featuring a 10.000" chuck diameter and 26.800" maximum swing capacity. The main spindle supports bar stock up to 3.300" in diameter, delivering 25 HP at 3,500 RPM for consistent cutting performance. Equipped with a 12-tool turret configuration, the machine enables sequential single-point cutting operations with efficient tool positioning. The primary axis configuration includes 2 standard axes with optional 3-axis capability, providing flexibility for complex part geometries. X-axis travel of 9.100" and Z-axis travel of 42.900" enable comprehensive workpiece access and extended cutting paths. The dual-spindle design, with both spindles rated at 3,500 RPM and 25 HP, allows for simultaneous operations on multiple workpiece stations, significantly enhancing productivity for high-volume production runs. This horizontal configuration optimizes chip evacuation and coolant flow, reducing setup times and improving surface finishes. The FT-250A targets small-to-medium batch production environments requiring versatile turning and light milling capabilities in a compact footprint.
